Getting Rid Of the surplus.


From the Indianapolis News.
The reported sale of the Vandalia
Railroad has started the tongues oi
the railroad reminiseents.
II remember" said one, when The
yandalia car wheels were kept paint.
ed red and were wiped at every sta.
ton. This was under the regime Of
President Peck. You see, the Van.
dalia was earning too much money in
those days, and some Of the surplus
had to be expended"
by earning to much : 21a
sUnder the charter the road was
obliged to turn over to the schoolfund
all net earnings in excess OF per cent.
AS o. matter OF fact the compafly was.
earning from 10 to 90, and the State
authorities demanded that the sur.
plus be applied in accordance with the
charter. There was no way to find
out just how much should go to the
school fund, but suits we're instituted
against the road for recovery OF GER
tain amounts. The management
probably concluded that the earnings
must be reduced at any rate the num-
ber OF employees was Increased at all
the principal stations, and whenever
a train came in you could see an
army of wheel wipers dart under the
cas- and begin to polish the red
paints. The wheels were kept as clean
as the engine-drivers. There was cur
rent report at the that the tracks
we're washed with soap every evenine,
the ties were white washed weekly, and
the track swept with house brooms.
The earnings were just judiciously held
down to the per cent. limit, and SO
far as / know the road never paid
enough money into the school fund to
buy i Pollard warrant. To this day
believe the road, by some !Escrutar
BILE sagacity, earns Just enough to pay
the stockholders 8 per cert. and the
schoul fund--nil,"

he rode leisurely out Of Winchester.
not dreaming that his army was in
danger. After a little, he heard again
the sound OF heavy guns, and now he
knew what it must mean. Not
half a mile srom Winchester be came
upon theappallingma OF defeat and
rout. The runaways from the battle
still in fight, had got so far rs this in
in their terror. The trains Of wagorl
were rushing by, horses and drivers
all in confusion, for there is no worse
turmoil in this world than the flight
and wreck of o beaten army. sheri-.
dan had never seen his men In this
condition before.
